- Design and maintain a high-performance global business knowledge graph and ontology to map complex ownership chains, UBOs, and hidden risk relationships across international borders
- Implement a hybrid storage strategy that bridges graph databases for relationship mapping with document and search stores for rich metadata and adverse media content
- Optimize the platform for real-time risk assessment, ensuring the ability to traverse multiple levels of ownership in milliseconds to support automated 'Go/No-Go' onboarding decisions
- Design and build scalable data services and APIs for ingesting, transforming, and serving data across the company
- Develop and maintain batch and streaming data pipelines using modern data processing frameworks and AWS cloud-native tooling
- Own the reliability, performance, and API first data platform, including monitoring, alerting, and on-call where appropriate
- Implement best practices for data modeling, quality, lineage, and governance to ensure trustworthy, well-documented datasets
- Work closely with data scientists, analysts, and application engineers to understand their needs and translate them into robust platform capabilities
- Drive automation and standardization through CI/CD, model as a service, and reproducible environments
- Help define and evolve the architecture of our data platform as a true internal service with clear contracts, SLAs, and versioned APIs

- Schema Design: Ability to design flexible ontologies that handle evolving regulatory data (e.g., changing PEP definitions or Sanction list formats)
- API Performance for Graphs: Experience building GraphQL or REST APIs specifically optimized for graph traversals and deep-tree lookups
- Experience building centralized data platforms or “data-as-a-service” offerings at scale (e.g., at a large tech or cloud-native company)

- Experience with modern data stack tools such as Spark/Flink, Kafka/Kinesis, Airflow/managed schedulers, and data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery, Databricks)
- Familiarity with DevOps practices: CI/CD, containerization (Docker), orchestration (Kubernetes), and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform)
- Strong focus on observability (metrics, logs, traces), resilience, and building early warning signals
- Comfort collaborating cross-functionally and communicating clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Background supporting machine learning or real-time decisioning use cases from a platform point of view
- Compliance Domain Knowledge: Understanding of AML, CTF, and KYC/KYB data structures (e.g., LEIs, ISO 20022)
